This video shows how I make my cafe chairs.
This chair is made in walnut with a bent form laminated back and a variety of joinery methods throughout the chair. My video about bent form laminating can be seen here.;
• Bent Lamination Forms
To see how I make the Maloof joint please subscribe. I am working on a very exhaustive video on how to make it.
I use my card scrapers for finishing and they can be purchased from my website store;
www.bearkatwood...
The drill bits I use are from;
www.woodshopbi...
The best sandpaper I have found is from Mirka-online.com
I like the Abranet as it doesn't clog and lasts a long time.
The adze I use is from John Switzer of Blackbearforge.com
Please like, subscribe and share this video.
If you don't like it, please let me know why so I can work harder to improve my videos to be inspirational and informative for woodworkers.
Thanks for watching.

You've outdone yourself this time sir! There aren't many people on YT that prompt me to hit replay and watch the same video again. Great work. You really make me want to build this chair

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

Thank you Shannon, thank you so much. That is really a great compliment. I will see what I can do to get the plans in your hands and hopefully I keep the quality up in the future. Thanks for the reply.

@RenaissanceWW 7 лет назад

BearKat Wood whoah thanks but let it be known I was definitely NOT fishing for plans. I will happily purchase them when you make them available

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

are you trolling me, hah... fishing pun. No worries I will even charge you full price ;)

@okain1000 7 лет назад

Thank you, it helped to write a script first, usually I just wing it and it shows.

The chair is a work of art and your commentary is very relaxing. Thanks for the vid.

@elindred 7 лет назад

Very nice work. I don't know if I'll ever make my own chairs, but one can come away from this appreciating why good chairs are expensive; they're tricky to make! If humans were made of boxes and rectangles, it would be a different story.

@andrewreid4337 7 лет назад

Brian, just when it looks like you can't do any better, you release this video! Perfectly filmed and edited, displaying a beautiful piece!

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

I agree, thanks. Hopefully they will all be this good from now on. I have had to learn a lot about editing and film making in the last year. The woodworking I had down, but the video making was a big change for me. Thanks.

@jonbishop1385 7 лет назад

Just wanted to say just how much i enjoyed your video, The chair looks a good strong build. I can also relate to how you feel about that weather, I live northwest of Ireland and some days it just never stops raining !

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

Thank you Jon, but really can I come crash on your couch?? ;) I have wanted to visit Ireland my whole life and hope to one day. Ireland has our sister city of Bandon and there are many here who have visited it. I don't mind the rain most of the time, but lately it just won't quit. Thank you for watching.

@jonbishop1385 7 лет назад

Bandon is Down South in Co Cork and benefits from a sunnier/drier climate than here on the northwest, we are surrounded by forestry but all just a pinewood, Your Bandon is right up northwest of the US, it must be Great there,far better weather? I'm living here almost 27 years and originally from the south of The UK, Portsmouth we meet a lot of Americans here, in fact we have friends from Tennessee we just visited today, Most that come to Ireland seem to leave their heart here and revisit and stay

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

One of my favorite bands is Gaelic Storm. They have a fun song with a line that says "I've never been to Ireland, but I know it's in my blood." I agree with that. I left my heart there, now I just need to get the rest of me there ;) some day.. be warned!!

@lanecheek9890 7 лет назад

Beautiful work. I pay special attention to you techniques, and am constantly learning new methods. can you give a little detail on how you use the table saw to level the legs?

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

Take a gander at this, where I learned the trick. Gary Rogowski shows how to level a chair. If you build three legged chairs, you will never need this ;) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-WZFDo1f2tQs.html

@Hiksan5 7 лет назад

Your best video so far. As Shannon i had to see it twice. So much information and great little details both regarding woodworking and filming. You have you own aestaetic (is that correct spelling?) and i am quite curious how you ended op right there. When did you have the feeling that "there it is, that shape is perfect"? Large question but perhaps a theme for another video? Keep up the good work!

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

Actually that is a great question. I have been working on this design and I am still not done with it. It is a growth process and when I completed this chair I sat down and redesigned the seat to be a little more delicate. I will have plans for it later this year. I have made quite a few pieces over the years and I am always tweaking them, but for this chair I am fairly happy with the design. I think it just worked well with the backrest and the back legs, they make it flow well. Thanks for watching.

@Hiksan5 7 лет назад

Designing furniture (and anything else) is a fluffy matter that is much discussed but not shown much in detail. You seem to be quite aware of your design process and I have seen in several of your videos that you mention part of the process. If you need inspiration I, for one, would love to see a video cowering that process and the thoughts that go before!

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

Very good idea, I have seen a few by David Savage that talk about design. I would love to do one that covers design all the way thru the build. Thanks for the idea.

@tomsdreamshopworx 7 лет назад

Great chair and video! It had a good pace to it and your voice is relaxing. I love my DJ-20! Just subbed.

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

Welcome to the team ;) It is a great jointer, it needs good dust collect though and can get clogged easy if you don't have a good sucker. I worked hard to give the video a cadence to it. Thanks for watching and subscribing.

@tomsdreamshopworx 7 лет назад

In the base of the jointer it is just a angled trough from the bottom of the head to the dust port. I cut and screwed in a piece of plywood to cover the top of the trough. I used a piece of plywood 8-3/8" wide and 17" long with a 35 deg. bevel on one end and a 55 deg bevel on the other. I buttered the beveled ends with silicone caulk and shoved the top into place. I added a screw through each side of the chute to hold the plywood in place. This really helps with the dust collection.

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

I will give that a try, thanks. That has been my one disappointment with it, other than that it works great.

@milkhousecustomwoodworks4368 7 лет назад

Fantastic work. Can't wait for the Maloof joint video there are no videos on line that show good detail. How many coats of finish do you put on ?

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

I like 4 coats of finish and then 2 coats of wax. Thanks.

@Dufffaaa93 7 лет назад

Great video and great project. One unrelated question: I see that your shop is not insulated. Is it cold in winter? Do you have snow in your part of Oregon?

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

I am on the coast so it is pretty temperate, maybe one little skiff of snow in the winter and I have a wood stove if it gets too cold. I wouldn't mind a more temperature controlled shop though.

@TJSWOODWORKINGSHOP 7 лет назад

Awesome job my friend i like it :)

@cavu4me 7 лет назад

I love it when I see a notification that you have a new video up. It's like a look inside Santa's workshop. Quick question. How do you like your Grizzly bandsaw? I'm looking to upgrade mine in the near future and would appreciate your thoughts. Thank you in advance

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

I haven't had any issues with it. Maybe upgrade and get the block guides, but it does the job fine. I would like to have a dedicated resawing bandsaw so I don't have to change out blades.

@cavu4me 7 лет назад

I hear that. No matter how many tools I acquire, I still have a wish list. Have narrowed it down between the Grizzly, Laguna or Jet.

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

That's not too narrowed down ;)

@michaelkowalski4831 7 лет назад

like to sit in that chair... nice work! I usually don't comment on music but you made some nice choices - all the same musician or a variety?

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

I think the majority of the songs were from the same musician, but I spent a lot of time going thru music and watching the video to see if it fit with the flow I was going for. I am very happy with how this one turned out, hopefully I can keep the quality up in the future. Thanks.

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

Self taught for 16 years, then I took a two day class with Gary Rogowski. This summer I am scheduled for a class with Jeff Miller. My wife bought me the Maloof video 16 years ago and I just went for it. Thanks.

@thomastieffenbacherdocsava1549 7 лет назад

Brian, Nice video. Great information and interest creating. As Shannon said it's worth watching more than one time but you won't get more viewer credit. LOL! The lamination and techniques for preparation are techniques I haven't seen before except Sam Maloof's videos.. Too bad your card scrapers are sold out????

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

They will be back in stock any day now and if you are interested go ahead and purchase and they will get sent out as soon as I get them in. I don't pay too much attention to the analytics so the street cred is more important, I look at the comments and likes, this one seems to be doing ok ;)

@bearkatwood6354 5 лет назад

It was open source stuff, you get what you pay for. ;)

@sleim754 5 лет назад

Is there a reason that you use titebond 3 ?

@bearkatwood6354 5 лет назад

Well titebond 3 is waterproof-ish so maybe if it was going outside... ;) ha. No, the reason I use titebond 3 is the open time, it has about twice the open time as titbeond 1 or 2 so for a complicated glue up it helps to have a few extra minutes.

@reforzar 7 лет назад

Wow. Beautiful chair. How did you get the back rest angles transferred to the bent lam jig?

@bearkatwood6354 7 лет назад

I actually built the back rest form first for another chair design and when I made the prototype for this chair I clamped a bent lamination to the legs when I was marking out the placement. You still have to plane a little to get a perfect fit, but it worked out nicely. Thanks for watching.

@gmoore6166 5 лет назад
